Abstract
Cretaceous Microfauna from Cameron Hills, N.W.T. [Abstract]
Forty-seven species of Foraminifera are described and figured and are included in thirteen genera (twelve arenaceous, one calcareaus): Ammobaculites (twelve species), Ammodiscus (one species), Eggerella (two species), Haplophragmoides (seven species), Leptodermella (one species), Miliammina (seven species), Nodosinella (one species), Proteonina (four species), Quadrimorphina (one species), Textularia (one species), Tritaxia (three species) and Verneuilina (four species). The Cameron Hills section may be correlated with a lower part of the Shaftesbury Formation of the Peace River area of Alberta and the upper portion of the Buckinghorse Formation of Northeastern British Columbia. The described fauna is of a brackish, shallow, lagoonal type environment.
